This is my final paper for the semester. I am proposing a moderated mediation model. The model is explainedas:
- More Perceived importance of Marijuana to College experience is (PIMCES) is related to more Coping and Enhancement Motives and Higher Cannabis Disorder Symptoms.
- Coping Motives and Enhancement Motives are related to lower Protective Behavioral Strategies (PBS)
- Lower (PBS) are related to Higher Cannabis Use Disorder Symptoms (CUDS)
All of the components: Perceived importance to College Experience, Marijuana Motives, Coping and Enhancement, Protectective behavioral Strategies, and Cannabis Use Disorder and Symptoms all need to be explained in a general sense and within context of the college student population before the connections are made between them according to the model above. Please reach out if you have any questions. I wont be able to make many changes myself as the turn around is really quick so I need things to be very well done the first time around.
The research proposal of course shoud include an abstract at least 250 words and conclusion that ties the proposal together really well.The relationship between the sources should be made and be very clear. There are many scholarly papers and publications on these components of the model so please make sure sources are pulled from scholarly journals at least within the last 8 years if possible. At least 20 sources should be used but the more the better. Make sure all the sections are labeled throughout the proposal and it flows together cohesively and all language is APA.
